One of Rekamgil's fondest and most beloved traditions is ice swimming. The winter climate can be frigid, and its citizens feel that they might as well embrace the weather. Ice swimming is swimming in a body of water with a frozen crust of ice, which requires cutting a hole in the ice. Medical studies have proven that ice swimming makes the hypothalamus release endorphins, morphine-like hormones, which cause a feeling of well-being.[citation needed] Maybe this accounts for Rekamgillians' legendary even-headedness?[1]
